DJ Cable - May 2010 Podcast

I know it's a week late, but here's my monthly roundup for May 2010.

Once again, massive thanks to everyone who's been downloading the podcasts. I've decided to switch things up by not having a vocal introduction anymore...Now you can comfortably rock this on your iPod without having to hear my monotone voice, haha!

So...This month's mix has more of a Hip Hop/Electronica selection, although there is a nice slice of Dubstep & Grime towards the end, packed with new tunes from House Shoes, Busta Rhymes, Sean Price, T.I., Rusko, Noisia, Guilty Simpson, Rude Kid and Mark Instinct...plus some exclusive heat from Mz. Bratt, Dream McLean, Macca and I.D.

DJ Cable Vs. Joker & Ginz Vs. Three 6 Mafia (Thugstep Quick Hitter)

It's been a while wince I posted another Thugstep blend. Massive thanks to everyone who's been supporting them, whether it's playing them at raves, on radio, or on you iPods... It means a lot.

DOWNLOAD

This was originally done as a mashup for my BBC 1Xtra Guest Mix for Mistajam back in February. I figured that it worked so well, I though I'd make it into a proper blend. I've called it a quick hitter as it's only the first verse and chorus; the reason being that the rest of the acapella doesn't fit so well with the whole tune. Also, like myself, most DJs like to mix quickly, so it's always nice to have something short and sweet with a clean intro and outro.

Let me know what you think!

P.S. This will also feature on "Fuck Thugstep Vol. 2", which is coming soon!

DJ Cable Vs. Ludacris & Starkey "How Low, Luv? (THUGSTEP Blend)

It's about time I hit you with another Thugstep blend. You may recognise this one from my January Podcast; imo it worked so well, that I decided to make a full blend out of it. Fully tagged, encoded at 320kbps...Vocals kick in after 32 bars.

DOWNLOAD: Dirty / Clean

As the acapella didn't come with a chorus, I had to make one using a section of the first verse. Turned out pretty well!

DJ Cable - BBC 1Xtra Guest Mix (9th Feb 2010)

Seeing as it's Valentine's Day this Sunday, we decided to put together a selection of Slow Jams, plus some R&B, Soul and Hip Hop classics that should get you in the mood for some good ol' fashioned sexy time with your partner(s) this weekend.

There were a whole load of other joints that we wanted to fit in, such as Smooth "Undercover Lover", Keith Sweat "Nobody", even some Bobby Brown and Babyface; however I think we've provided you with a smooth mix.

Jay-Z "Venus Vs. Mars" (Prod. Timbaland)

I'm in two minds about this. Timbaland always comes correct with his beats (can you actually think of a wack Timbo beat?!), but I don't think this particular beat suits Jigga that well...Of all the tracks that have leaked so far "D.O.A." and (to an extent) "Run This Town" are the only ones that have impressed me...I really hope the rest of "Blueprint 3" is solid...

However, I'm still anxious to hear this Swizz Beatz joint!

DJ Cable's Guest Mix on BBC Asian Network

It's been a pretty exciting week so far. On top of having 5 shows to do, and Serato Video-SL arriving in the post, I also had a guest mix aired on DJ Kayper's show on BBC Asian Network, as part of the Hype "Mixtape Challenge".

For those that don't know, each week Kayper does the "Mixtape Challenge" on her show, where she challenges a DJ to fit 3 or 4 Desi tracks into a 15 minute mix of any genre; be it cutting them up, remixing/re-editing them, etc...In other words, you gotta be creative!

Previous DJs who've taken up the challenge include Crookers, MJ Cole, DJ Craze & DJ Yoda, so I knew I had to pull something out of the bag! So as a result, this mix showcases a lot more scratching, a whole mixture of genres, and some re-editing which I've done in Ableton. I hope you enjoy it!

Oh, there's also a brief interview with me at the start too...You can all witness how...erm...monotone/quiet I am lol...

BONUS! Feeling the New Jack Swing? A few videos here to keep up that nostalgia:

The Mac Band "Roses Are Red"

This one even features an early cameo from ?uestlove.

?uestlove's Top Tips For 2009 (Video)

Very interesting interview. ?uestlove reckons 2009 will be Jim Jones & Ron Browz' year...I mean, "Pop Champagne" is a certified banger, but c'mon, Jimmy & Browz?! I dunno man, that's a fairly far-out decision...

For me, it'll most likely be Wale or Kid Cudi. As far as major players go, I got the feeling that Em's forthcoming album will be straight crack, whilst "Blueprint 3" is shaping up to be very solid indeed...

Unless Dre finally drops "Detox", Eminem & Jay will own 2009...

Your thoughts?

P.S. I agree on Twitter being the new thing to take off....
